Life is like MATH:
With quality friends, you ADD,
Enemies of success, you SUBTRACT,
Misfortunes you DIVIDE,
Through hard work, your success MULTIPLIES.
It is a trap, yet you can escape,
By putting pleasures in BRACKETS—
Saving the sweetest for tomorrow.
Of all things, trust in God,
Who grants the power
To bypass obstacles
And solve the equation of success.
I died for beauty – twas my choice
To end my life this way;
In every note of her voice
Was universe at play:
Twas sparkling, shining, shimmering,
Twas elegant and bright,
In it the world was glimmering
As I then held her tight.
I died for beauty – as I did
My lifeforce to her went
And from the shackles it her freed
To live by her intent:
She needed lifeforce to be strong
And then to carry on
With universe to get along
And sing again her song.
I died for beauty, so it lives,
Is by me fertilized,
Shimmers and glimmers and conceives
And is now realized,
And though I died, what it gave birth
Was better than was I,
And now is set upon her course
To grow and multiply.
Behold, a new expression of sound,
A fresh song and joy that now abound,
It crushes all plans of the wicked foe,
Washing, purifying with heavenly glow.
The focus shifts to a brand-new place,
Stalled engine redone, with full horse power grace,
Making room for His goodness overflow,
As blessings multiple in divine flow.
Raining down the glory, dancing on the fire,
The coals that once burned, now our dancing floor.
Destroying the enemy's works, it's His desire,
To breathe new life across the land forevermore.
For in His great mercy, He multiplies His blessings,
Putting fire under our feet, we'll never be oppressed.
A symphony of love and hope fills our lives,
As He transforms and renews us forevermore.

LORD JESUS MULTIPLY THE BREAD AND FISH
Got a million places to be
And thousand people to see
God I need you to, just to be you
Got just a loaf of bread
This is what the people need (more food)
Gonna pray so you’ll multiply it
And feed thousands, so many people in hunger
This gonna do it all in God’s name
In Jesus name gonna feed the tens of thousands
This gonna do with just a loaf of bread
My one prayer, no not just a wish
Lord Jesus multiply the bread and fish
My prayer Lord, not my wish… is
Is to multiply the bread and fish
This prayer to the Father
Gonna save all our problems
In Jesus, Jesus name
Cause in man I’m bond not free
In man I am a slave don’t wanna be
In God fill in awe for I owe Him all and everything
But Christ paid the price
Died for my sins now I’m found not lost
Filled me, fed me, held me, lead me
A God he whom provides all my needs
In prayer I’d need be on my knees
Every so thank full that He saved me
No longer hungry I’m with bread, fish and love
Father I thank you for feeding me so

You've heard the song, “I'm In The Mood For Love” I assume
Got a new one, “I'm In The Mood To Multiply” I'll get a room
A good time you're in for
Hope your bum don't get sore
We'll fly to the heavens, you'll feel like you're in a typhoon
multiply
The good
never die
But multiply
the flesh
May fail the good
Through death
But with legacy
The good lives for ever
Like always he
Multiply
Note
Is good to
Be good.
Ever since our escape
and we met eye to eye
Lost in thoughts that
we needed to multiply
God sent us with only one heart,
love,share other's heart, multiply it.

the demon lives and the demon festers, it scratches at the walls and try's to make
me fall. i grab my sword and cut it down but two more come and fight like hounds.
they are here but i will not fear, the time will come when they run with fear. i
destroy four and now theres eight, i look around and push twords the gate.they
circle me laughing with glee,they do not see my friends and family are with me.its
time to break free,and they will help me to be free.
